A Product of Insomnia

So around 2am Sparky woke me  up because he  needed to be let out, and after that I couldn't get back to sleep.  My mind wandered to a conversation we were having with Susie Thanksgiving Day about kitchens and remodeling and so on.  Then all this stuff I remembered from a kitchen redesign class came back to me and I did some reading about work triangles and so forth and thought how cool it would be to make a miniature model of our kitchen out of Legos so we could experiment with rearranging the elements.

So, isn't it cool?  Aren't you impressed?  OK, it isn't as nice as Mira's drawings.  And the walls are incomplete but we just need to know their position for the purposes of the model, they don't have to be accurate in height.  OK, it looks like the product of an addled sleep-deprived brain,  but it is accurate in span and everything is to scale and I'm quite proud of that (2 lego pegs = 1 foot).  And by the time I took the photo I had rearranged some of the bits to represent possible new  positions of the range (large white mass of bricks), some shelving (grey), etc, so the elements are not still in their original places.  There is also a hypothetical 'island' in the center which does not currently exist.  But the microwave is there (small white brick along yellow wall in foreground).
